Welcome back to Sailing UV — the greatest sailing show on earth! 🌊

Have We Made a Huge Mistake?
Last week we wept as Declan and Ivan sailed off to Mexico to join a sailing cargo ship bound for the northern Atlantic and ultimately Hamburg. Their first contact with us when they reached the boat on Cozumel, left us wondering if we had made a huge mistake.
Meanwhile R...
It's a busy week and we are trying to squeeze in as much as possible before we have to go home and pick up Beau and Bear again. We have our ups and down but mange to do quite a bit of gel-coating, sanding and vanishing so it is productive even if it feels rather frustrating along the way.
